About cross-border freight

We move freight both ways across the Canada–US border and keep the paperwork ahead of the truck. We are not a customs broker — we prepare the documentation and coordinate with the broker you choose, so clearance is ready when the load reaches the crossing.

Almost every cross-border delay is a paperwork delay. A manifest that does not match the invoice, a PARS that was never filed, an in-bond move without the right entry — each holds a truck at the line for hours, and on specialized freight that can also void a permit or an escort booking on the far side.

So the border is treated as a scheduled step rather than an obstacle. Filings go in ahead of dispatch, the broker is briefed on what is coming, and freight is sequenced to clear on time and still meet its delivery appointment.

What cross-border covers

  • Commercial invoices and manifests
  • PARS and PAPS filed in advance
  • Coordination with your customs broker
  • In-bond moves and entries
  • CBSA requirements
  • CBP requirements
